Three years ago today. Let’s get out there and make fun of the fear mongering bullies. (And bring a jacket. It might rain).

A screenshot of a twitter post from Kat Abu: “Fox News tried to do a bunch of scary man-on-the-street interviews about crime. It didn’t go well.“ It includes a picture of a white woman in a green jacket with a microphone in front of her. She is outside in Seattle, getting increasingly annoyed with the reporter trying to paint Seattle as a hellhole. She will soon turn to straight up mocking him.

Nothing but respect for the person who entered this quilt into the "Patriotic" category at the Washington State Fair. 🫡

A lap quilt in red, white and blue with bloody hand appliques and "250 years of violence" on it in large letters. There are a lot of hand-embroidered phrases around the hand appliques listing various American atrocities carried out by the government against marginalized American communities and other countries.

Seattle city council's District 5 has been held by pro-business backed candidates for a long time. Debora Juarez has held this seat on-and-off for nearly a decade. Cathy Moore won the seat in 2024, but resigned 18 months later. There is a special election *right now* to fill the seat until 2028.

Every one of those brave and inspiring people you hear about on the news was exhausted and terrified the whole time. They were sad and angry and wanted to crawl into a hole and not come out. They wished they could have stayed in bed. Then they did it anyway. But they did it scared and sad and tired.

The SPS superintendent is absolutely crashing out about the potential strike in his most recent email to parents. His email is long, about him more than it should be, and accuses teachers of holding Special Education hostage when it’s the district that’s trying to force through a new model.

People tell me they like suits but don't have occasions to wear one. You can wear a suit to court, funerals, and religious services. Doesn't have to be your trial, friend's burial, or religion you believe in. Go to random trials, attend a stranger's burial, join multiple religions. Try it sometime.
